RE-KINDLE YOUR MOTIVATION


A life full of progress and excitement is an ultimate goal we all aspire for. Each day we work towards achieving new heights and fulfilling our dreams.

Its an amazing feeling when we accomplish our goals one after the other, slowly but surely. Analyzing carefully what are your goals and desires, then having a constructive plan to move forward, would definitely take you towards fulfilling your goals and desires.
 
Sometimes it so happens that you are putting in lot of effort and hard work into everything you do but something somewhere seems to be not right. You realize that you are not getting the desired results and the energy around seems to be full of anxiety and unrest.
 
I have concluded that whenever we are going through this phase in life, we should re-focus and re-visit ourselves. Going by the human psychology, we all get inspired and motivated at the start of implementing the plans. There is a feeling of excitement, success and opportunity. With passage of time, while you work towards your goals, there are moments, people and feedback that is not that encouraging. All these factors sometimes demotivate you and then you start doubting your own potential.
 
Keeping in mind, that all individuals are different and they perceive life according to their own circumstances, it is not imperative that they share the same thought process as of your's. When you experience lack of motivation, things not working out according to your wish....this are the time to gather up your self esteem, believe in your potential and re-inspire yourself.
 
Few points you can ponder on when you are re-analyzing the situation:
 
1.  Are you doubting your potential and abilities just because of the comments and the behavior of other individuals?
 
2. Is it that you are emotionally dependent on someone's approval to move forward and pursue your goal?
 
3. Do you want things to work out at the blink of an eye and that is leading to frustration and anxiety?
 
4. Are you too much into thinking on how people are reacting to your progress?
 
5. Are you scared to leave your comfort zone?
 
I am sure there must be many more questions that cross our minds when we sit and think about the reasons, but surely these few I have mentioned above are going to help you out to find the root cause of the situation you are facing.
 
Steps that you might want to consider changing the situation and moving towards a result oriented approach:
 
1. Every moment when you feel negative thoughts are coming across your mind, immediately change it into positive thoughts. Force yourself to see that brighter side (there always is).With conscious practice it would be much easier.
 
2. Believe in yourself that you possess the potential within to accomplish what you can dream of. The fact is that whatever you think and do has limitless possibilities. So do not stop the "Thinking and Dreaming" followed by an action oriented approach.
 
3. Assure yourself that your ideas can be crazy for someone else but if you believe in those, The Universe has given you enough power to change it into reality and live your dreams.
 
4. Positive affirmations are so powerful. With every conscious step you take, tell yourself something positive about yourself.
 
5. Reading good books and literature can really empower you. Take out time to read good books and autobiographies. You never know what can show you the way that you have been asking the universe for.
 
6. Before you hit the bed remind yourself of your goals and then when you wake up, embrace what a beautiful day you have been blessed with for you to take steps towards the fulfillment of your dreams...every moment in a day counts!!!
 
7. Meditation and Visualization guides you through in your achieving your goals. Understanding and analyzing the facts about a situation can help us to rectify it and come out of it productively. Don’t give in to the negative energies around so easily.
 
Keep re-inspiring yourself periodically so that you can keep yourself motivated and full of positive energy.
 
Your actions governed by your thinking and energy you possess would determine how easily you can fulfill your goals.
 
Re-invent yourself - as you are indeed a special individual with a purpose!!!
 
Inspire and motivate individuals whenever you can, accomplish your dreams and help others to realize their purpose as well.
 
Stay Blessed

Focus and Faith

Each one of us has been blessed with so much energy that we have the capability to achieve whatever we set our minds on.

A beautiful quote by a Blessed Soul:

"God never takes time to build a Nobody. Everybody Universe creates is to be Somebody".  So "Be Somebody".
 
Often we are so busy sorting out challenges and issues due to which we go through lots of stress and pain and eventually we forget the purpose of our being and find our lives full of discontentment and worries. In a nutshell, we are so busy worrying about the "Thorns" that we don't see the "Roses" that are so beautiful.

The Energy provided to us by the universe is so powerful that we need to spend time on ourselves to evaluate our strengths and to identify our individual ultimate destination in this beautiful journey. Every individual has been blessed with the  power and energy to shape up their life the way  that they want to.
 
In this journey to "Be Somebody", every moment you spend consciously and with full awareness, will ultimately provide you the much sought after Bliss.
 
When you start making a conscious choice of  every single minute of your day, you can feel the inner happiness, contentment and immense bliss.There is magic in your words, your looks, your walk...as a matter of fact you are full of charisma, that reflects in you.
 
Definitely there are times when we find things are not going the way we want, that is the time when we have to make sure we are not loosing our "Focus and Faith".
 
Focus is an asset that every individual needs to have, to accomplish their goals. Act as the "Lion" who is out to hunt and then Focuses on a  Single Deer in a herd. The "Focus" enables the lion to zero in on the Aim whereas other Deer in the herd dim out. Then comes the Faith......the Faith that whatever I have zeroed in on will be achieved.
 
Don't bother spending time cribbing about the little setbacks in this journey....Live Life as you have never lived before, Spread your infectious warmth everywhere you go. Never compromise on your self esteem or cater to the feelings of inferiority. The Universe has given each one of us the "Power" to carve a niche in this lifetime. Take a moment to acknowledge and put your hands on to that. Recognize your strengths and empower yourself . Start working on the identified weaknesses to accomplish your aim.

You are an amazing soul that The Universe has designed to "Be Somebody".
Continue your amazing Journey with Focus and Faith...............

Stay Blessed

ELIMINATING NEGATIVITY


The cycle of good, is broken by a single act of negativity. The cycle of negativity is stopped by choosing the good -- not just once, but again and again until it is goodness that prevails in your life and in our world altogether.
                                                                                    John Morton
 

Our emotions and actions are governed by our feelings . To progress and be happy we should surround ourselves with positivity. Most of the times practical implementation of Positive thoughts is not all that easy. A number of articles and books say that we should always surround ourselves with positive people and positive environment. When I applied this knowledge in my day to day life, I must admit that it does not seem practical. Then I came across a wonderful word "Awareness". Although I had read it a number of times I did not realize the potential strength of the meaning.
 
 "You have got only one life to live -  don't spill it"
                                                                                      Robert Schuller
 
Understanding the meaning of the word "awareness" is so important because when we live every moment with full awareness then only we realise how are we responding to the situations in our daily routine.
 
To live positively and eliminate the negativity out of our system we have to work our mind continuously. As soon as we find ourselves carried away  with the flow of the events, not realising that negative thoughts have already started to dominate at that very moment, we need to take a break -  "Time alone". Sit back, relax and change your thought process with full Awareness. A renowned author once used the phrase "Turn on the Dial" that means always keep on reminding yourself to switch your thoughts to positive ones, and that too with full Awareness.
 
"Today evil spirits are seen as negativity which floats around the Earth in large quantities"
                                                                                       Scott Cunningham
 
We can start practising this with meditation and periodically taking some time out for ourselves "Time Alone". Acknowledging  the fact, that we are going through negative emotions and feelings is the first step towards eliminating those thoughts. This is the First Step of Awareness. Next is to flush out these negative emotions and instead feed ourselves with positive affirmations and emotions. Each one of us goes through situations and problems at different stages of life, but the skills we master consciously and with full awareness, to counter these situations, help to live life in complete harmony.



When you are aware of the thoughts going in your mind, you can better take control of the situation and change the outcome. Taking control of your thoughts would not only help you to have a positive outlook but also let you see things with a wider perspective.
 
What we focus on, we empower and enlarge. "Good" multiplies when focused upon and "Negativity" multiplies when focused upon. The choice is ours: Which do we want more of?
 
Wishing you every moment of life, full of positivity and abundance.
